Pokemon Hunting In Sokcho, South Korea We wanted to know what all the hype was about with this Pokemon thing. However, you can't play Pokemon in Korea due to security issues with North Korea. But you can play it on the far northeast city of Sokcho. So we went, we ate and played pokemon all day. The entire city was filled with others doing the same thing. If you are planning a trip to Korea and need help doing so (we can even help you with a private tour to Sokcho) you can find us at http://ift.tt/1Fa3q98
